Two big things happened at swim lessons today.
1. Emilia, who has been less than thrilled since starting her solo private lessons, squirmed out of my arms in an effort to get into the pool with her swim instructor. This guy really is great. She went from crying the entire 15 minutes to jumping in the pool to him in less than a month. While he is a great instructor, it doesn’t hurt that Emilia has no fear of the water.
2. Tucker made up his mind that he would swim across the pool today. It’s only a very recent development that he’s been able to flip to his back without assistance, but today he felt confident and went for it.
